see, starting relationships is like gambling: if you stay rational and walk away before you become invested in an outcome, things are much easier to work with.

however, if you let things go too far, in spite of what you think and feel, you become less and less rational. things start happening TO you instead of you causing things to happen. there has to be a balance.

I'll refer back to my earlier post about lacking judgment here....

one of my first entries was "if the girl says her name with my last name." yep, happened, more than once. this points out some serious issues.

i would also usually include a short paragraph describing why the behavior was unacceptable to me. this kept me from rationalizing when things were hot and heavy.

[nynor]

another point of the exercise, the dump list, is you will get to know what it is YOU want. this is extremely helpful.

[porsche4life]

Sounds like a wise plan...

That fancy phone got a notes App? Build your list there, that way you always have it, and can always add to it...

D's Dating Dump app.

[nynor]

by the time i met my wife, my dump list would usually weed them out before it even got to a first date.

[porsche4life]

Distribute for free, a few ads on the top and bottom....

I could have us in green for years....

i should make one, with about 10 or so suggestions, and charge .99 for it. i can still remember a few of the better items on my list.

oh, man. my infected sinus is draining snot and blood and....

[porsche4life]

Am I right in thinking those should be the only two fluids coming out of there?

And that second one isn't really a great sign...

[slodave]

Did a little martian fall out?

[nynor]

....pus.

[porsche4life]

You taking anything for that D?

[nynor]

a couple of ounces of makers mark.....

you have any suggestions?

[porsche4life]

Not particularly, you could take some sudafed if the drainage is bothering you... But you really need to get that stuff out.

You really ought to see a doc though and get something to treat the infection, not just the symptoms.

I'll take some makers mark though...

[nynor]

i am really digging the makers mark. also, i drink less when i am drinking whisky vs. beer. crazy, but true.

well, i am thinking that now that it is draining, it will resolve on its own. if it is not vastly improved by morning, i may go get some tetracycline. i need some for the dog and cats, anyway.

Spoonful of horseradish.

[porsche4life]

You know what I think of the unguided medication, but tetra should do the trick...

I flush my sinus with warm water, with little salt, and a very small amount of vinegar. Nose Douche. I use a big syringe instead of a netty pot.
